Today, our week of FAME begins! Everyone has a chance to be famous this week as singers, dancers, artists, athletes, and more! At the field, groups worked to create a picture of themselves as someone famous using chalk on the basketball court. Other groups had the chance to think about what they might like to wear if they were walking the red carpet and some of them designed some amazing outfits! Groups worked hard to prepare for this week’s Talent Show (which is this Thursday at 11am! – please join us!).

This week’s field trip to the Walpole Children’s Theater is on Friday (not Thursday). Please bring in the permission slip:

Everyone took a refreshing dip in the pool today! The cool water felt wonderful in this hot weather. Children had fun splashing, playing with friends, and laughing. There was even a fun game of duck, duck, goose happening in the pool! (Apparently it is tough to catch the other person in the water). We will not be at the pool next week, but will return for our last swim the week after.

Important: Next week, there is a switch in our schedule. Our field trip is on Friday instead of Thursday. We will remain at the senior center on Thursday with fun activities. We will also be having our annual Talent Show on Thursday, July 28th at 11am.

Also, when there is a change in pickup, dropoff, bus stop, etc. it helps to alleviate confusion and concern for us if we have the information in writing. It also allows all necessary people to be aware of the change. The best way to make us aware of changes is through the gmail account: campsunshinegroup@gmail.com.

It was another day of discovery and learning!  Our scientists were busy creating, exploring, investigating, laughing, and smiling!  We made our own bubbles and created ooey, gooey Oobleck!  There were many experiments tried today including building penny boats, designing a container to (hopefully) keep an egg safe when it drops, mixing mentos and diet coke or baking soda and vinegar to see the reactions, and creating lava lamps.  We also had some opportunities to learn about topics such as plate tectonics and DNA.  The levels we reach during this week is always so amazing!  From our youngest group to our oldest group the questions and discoveries are endless!
